Volume of Tank given MLSS Formula Elements

Variables
Volume of Tank
Volume of Tank is defined as the capacity of flocculation and mixing tank.
Symbol: V
Measurement: VolumeUnit:
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Total Microbial Mass
Total Microbial Mass is the cumulative mass of microorganisms present in a given sample or system. This includes bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and other microbes.
Symbol: Mt
Measurement: WeightUnit: g
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Sewage Flow
Sewage Flow into the aeration tank is the sewage flow into the aeration tank when we have prior information of other parameters used.
Symbol: Q
Measurement: VolumeUnit:
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Influent BOD
Influent BOD is the total amount of BOD which is present in the incoming sewage.
Symbol: Qi
Measurement: DensityUnit: mg/L
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
MLSS
MLSS is the concentration of suspended solids in the mixed liquor within an aeration tank during the activated sludge process.
